The shared mission of California’s hospitals is to be on the front-lines of serving the health care needs of their local communities – 24 hours a day, seven days a week. Hospitals and their medical staff are relied upon to care and cure patients; this task requires a relationship with their communities built on trust, reliability, and compassion. CHA works with hospitals and payers to strengthen these relationships, and reassure patients, regardless of their ability to pay, of hospitals' commitment to caring.
